The Sludgelord Sour 16 for May 2015

Welcome
to The Sludgelord’s Sour 16. Each
month, you the reader are unwittingly compiling a list of the top 16 records of
the month, covering all genres of metal, but predominately the best the
doom, sludge, stoner-psychedelic genres have to offer.

Is
it chart? Not really. It is merely the 16 records you guys have been most
interested in over the last month and you have been checking out on this very
page.

Our
idea for this thing was to turn the power over to you guys, yes it would be
easy for us to choose our favourite records of the months, however it is you the
reader, the fans that support these bands, buy their records and attend their
shows. So here is the The
Sludgelord Sour 16 for May 2015,
the 16 records you’re most looking forward too or are currently checking
out. Check em out, spread the word and perhaps revisit some records you
may have overlooked.

The
results are compiled based on page views alone and calibrated into
the list below. So without further ado, this is the Sour 16. So until next month,
roll up, kick back, chug a beer and Hail the riff! All review links, are held
under the artwork.
